Nettle live @ Brandeis

A heads-up to the heads in the Boston/Providence area-----this Saturday, March 21st, Brandeis University and MusicUnitesUS will be hosting the US premiere of Nettle. I have not been this excited for a show in a long time! I can't say enough great things about the music of Nettle, and DJ/ Rupture, so rather than me ramble on, I'd like to point you to a few true words that others have said---definitely offer more substance than I can provide...one of them being Wayne Marshall, who is currently the Florence Levy Kay Fellow in Ethnomusicology at Brandeis, and the author of a blog that I check out.

Both of their albums are on the Agriculture, and can be purchased through shops linked at their website.
